Possible new PlayStation Portal model pays homage to the Vita's OLED

While much of the focus on PlayStation's next steps is the PS6 and PS6 Portable , the two-year old PlayStation Portal could be getting a revamp according to those pesky internet rumours.  Update : Hints at pricing are around £/$250-299 for the new model, but everything remains deeply in rumours territory. Presumably the goal is to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners, something that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement. But, PlayStation needs to make Portal more a core member of the PS5 family, rather than the distant cousin that most of its appearances suggest.  As the improvement in connectivity and streaming tech, proven by many gamers enjoying their PS5 or PlayStation Plus streamed content from around the world, an updated Portal Pro could be on the cards.  Possibly featuring a 120Hz display and an OLED screen in honour of the mighty Vita, that'd be coo...

More physical releases roll onto the Vita

Looks like Eastasiasoft will release anything with a pulse in the Vita's final year. While I'm sure Pachi Pachi on a Roll and The Lost Cube are fun little digital titles, can't say I'll be racing to pre-order them. That said, anything that helps boost the profile of developers and publishers like Red Mount, Dolores and Jandusoft, plus the others still bringing games our way has to be good. 

Both titles are limited to 1,000 copies and will arrive in March. Pre-orders go live this week on February 11th. There's the usual bundle of the game card, manual, CD soundtrack and numbered certificate, all for US$34.99 + shipping.


In Pachi Pachi On A Roll, professional thieves Fujiko and Robin set out to ruin the casinos of Money City. These lovely ladies are ready to risk it all (their clothes included) to pull off their biggest hustle yet. Blending elements of pinball with pachinko inspirations, Pachi Pachi On A Roll spans 32 unique missions across 4 major venues. Take down giant UFOs, slay dragons, rob a train and go for the highest scores possible, all amidst naughty stripping mechanics to make the action even spicier! Animated character portraits, a variety of minigames and an energetic soundtrack combine for a feverishly good time.


The Lost Cube draws inspiration from modern platformer classics like Super Meat Boy and Celeste. Set in a small village in Northern Europe, the story revolves around Ulrik’s quest to retrieve a magical cube that has the power to restore prosperity to the land. As Ulrik, you’ll need to jump and dodge your way through environmental hazards while avoiding enemies across more than 60 levels. You have no weapons, only your agility and cunning to keep you alive.
